“I’ll Be Late” plays with the contrast between the impeccably designed Braun wall clocks and the impulsive energy of graffiti, challenging our relationship with time, identity, and social norms.
Time is a social construct. So is art. This piece disrupts both: pairing icons of modernist precision with raw, handwritten phrases like “Yendo…” and “Llego en 5’. Time ticks evenly for everyone, but we live it unevenly. Five minutes can fly by or stretch forever.
Because really : what does “Llego en 5” even mean? For some, it’s five minutes on the dot. For others, it’s a feeling, a suggestion, a hopeful estimate. It might mean “I’m on my way,” “I haven’t left yet,” or “I’m still choosing shoes.” It’s funny. And real. And annoying, even disrespectful. Misunderstood, and yet somehow, we all keep trying to sync up. To find a shared rhythm. A common beat.
